Our days with the Dead may be limited, but you can watch them (and so much more!) whenever you want with the latest to enter the FAST (free ad-supported streaming TV) space: Sling Freestream.

Among Freestream’s offerings — at genuinely no cost to you, the viewer — is The Walking Dead Universe channel, featuring all series in the franchise including the aforementioned Fear the Walking Dead (with the first part of its eighth and final season premiering May 14). But that’s just the tip of the iceberg — it also gives you access to the first episode of buzzy series like Starz’s Outlander (in case you’ve been suffering in the Droughtlander ahead of Season 7 return this June).

Read on for our guide on the new service below to discover why it’s worth signing up!
